‘Killzone: Shadow Fall’ gallery

Among the handful of others announced at Sony’s recent press conference, Guerrilla Games announced that their new title Killzone: Shadow Fall would be released as a launch title for Sony’s PS4.

So where is this game chronologically in relation to previous Killzone titles? Glad you asked. According to a blog post from the game’s director Steven Ter Heide, Shadow Fall takes place in 2381 in Vekta City. That’s roughly thirty years after the events that took place in Killzone 3, so the world has changed quite a bit. In 2381, two rival factions – the Helghast and the Vektans – live side by side in a city separated by a massive wall. The two groups are in something of a cold war, but after an attack (perhaps the one in this trailer?), things quickly get hot, and you’re they only guy who can cool things down.

Nintendo Switch 2

The Nintendo Switch 2 has reportedly been jailbroken, and AI helped crack the code. Developer Sammy Hajhamid, aka pepsipu, used OpenAI's Codex to help exploit the console, even modding Mario Kart World with the likes of Peter Griffin and Hatsune Miku.

BioWare is closing, and the next Mass Effect is going with it
The closure ends more than three decades of RPG history and follows years of troubled releases.
Mass Effect

Electronic Arts is shutting down BioWare after more than three decades, bringing the curtain down on the studio behind Mass Effect, Dragon Age, Baldur’s Gate, and Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic. EA also canceled the next Mass Effect in early development, and the closure is part of a wider restructuring that will reportedly eliminate around 400 jobs across EA.

Roughly 50 of those positions are reportedly at BioWare, and EA is also closing the studio’s Edmonton workspace. BioWare confirmed the news in its own farewell message, thanking the developers and players who helped build its games over the past 30 years.
